Body and blood

Ibuprofen my
food. Robitussin my drink.
Illness my altar.

Head cold

Snot blocked mucus jammed
sinus pressure. Every breath
a pulse of pure pain.

Reflection

Dressing room mirror
replaced by funhouse looking
glass. Not me in there.

Forced

Disappointment like
a kidney punch makes it hard
to smile through the pain.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

He had a dream but
his murder was our nightmare.
It’s time to wake up.

Face waxing

In a misguided
effort I peeled off half my
face and left the hair.

Online – the new paradigm

My fingers talk my
eyes listen my head makes it
up my heart hungers.

Chenay Bay – Fourth day, Christmas Day

Green Cay Marina
walk. J gets stung, M watches
A Christmas Story.

Holiday spirit

Like catching snowflakes,
this melts quickly from the heat
of a stressful month.

See hear taste smell touch

If you had to pick,
what sense would you sacrifice?
Impossible choice.
